NINA.Within my bedroom I paced back and forth while my thoughts were completely focused on Drew and our chaotic relationship. Even though I'm not who I once was and I've made errors along the way, why doesn't Drew recognize my efforts? Can't he accept me wholeheartedly? I told myself that I am a good person while attempting to dispel my own uncertainties. "I'm not Laurel. I've changed. I've grown." The voice inside my mind persisted with its interrogation. "Have you really? Is your behavior just a facade of who you truly are?After I stopped pacing I looked at my reflection in the mirror. "I'm trying, okay?" I said, my voice rising in frustration. "I'm doing the best I can. Can't that be enough for Drew?" With each step I took I remembered all the occasions when Drew had caused me pain along with all the times he had shown disbelief in me. "Why can't he just trust me?" I wondered. What makes him unable to acknowledge my attempts to improve myself?I took a deep breath to regain m

DREW.Laurel smiled, already digging into her food. "Oh, yes! She expressed her intense love for it while her eyes sparkled with joy.My mom and I exchanged a significant glance. Both of us knew Laurel had never liked gumbo. She often made humorous comments about how much she detested the food. This sudden change in preference seemed...off. I assumed she developed a sudden fondness for it to dismiss my suspicions. My mom's doubtful expression showed that she found my words unbelievable. The only sounds during our meal came from spoons hitting bowls as complete silence prevailed.During our shared meal I began to wonder about the other changes Laurel might be experiencing. What I observed seemed like either a passing state or a sign of a deeper problem. My mom's doubtful expression mirrored my own thoughts perfectly.As Laurel started cleaning the dishes we finished our meal together my mom came toward me wearing a grave expression. Laurel gives me an uneasy feeling she revealed in a

LILIAN POV The unsettled thoughts from my discussion with Laurel stayed with me as I walked back to my room. The thought that Laurel possessed a hidden truth persisted in my mind prompting me to uncover what she was concealing. The moment I got onto my bed a powerful determination enveloped me. I settled into the chair opposite Laurel. "Start explaining. What's going on? You went about your business stealthily before receiving an unexpected package. What's going on?" Laurel's expression turned resolute. "Nothing's going on, okay? Package delivery is the sole activity I engage in. I raised an eyebrow. "At this time of night? How can you receive a package at this late hour from someone you refuse to identify? Come on, Laurel. I know you're hiding something." Laurel's eyes revealed a momentary flash of determination as our gazes met. "I'm telling you, nothing's going on. And I mean it. You will find no deception from me when I speak about this issue. Her eyes showed a quick flas

NINA POV Upon entering the room I sat down on the bed as my thoughts sped through my mind. My actions must remain unnoticed to prevent Drew and Mom Lilian from detecting me. I wondered if she was secretly monitoring our conversation. Hmm, I breathed out. I must use my intelligence together with careful steps to successfully manage this situation. Mom's earlier questions echoed in my mind as I sat silently. Her growing suspiciousness taught me the importance of moving forward in extreme caution. I had to keep Mom from discovering my true identity and the reason for my presence. "Okay, stay calm, Laurel," I told myself. "You've been doing this for months now. You can keep up the act." But it wasn't easy. The situation began to reveal itself to Drew's mother who possessed an excellent analytical mind. I understood that my mannerisms and behavior needed more careful management to avoid raising suspicion. I got up from my position before proceeding to move toward the mirror. I scruti

DREW POVI didn't need to be told twice. In one quick motion I stripped her pants away to reveal her moist area between her legs. Her arousal triggered an overwhelming desire inside me prompting me to touch her. I lightly hit her pussy with my hand until the sound of the impact filled the entire room. Her body arched in pleasure while her eyes showed desperate longing as painful screams filled the room."More," she begged, her voice barely audible. Striking her pussy again I experienced a wave of pleasure from the sound that followed my action. The glistening of her pussy demonstrated her arousal while subtly asking for touch which I found impossible to ignore. I brought my mouth closer to taste her arousal as I licked her pussy which filled me with desire.Her fingers twisted in my hair as her moan escaped and her body arched while I continued to tease her with my tongue. Her trembling body showed her pleasure underneath me while her moans grew louder as I continued teasing. I moved
